Light And Colour

The dark was all there was before

He said, Let there be light

And there I was, alone, afraid

As I brightened up the night

I saw the world in monochrome

And slowly lit the day

And I was Light, the luminance

But all I saw was grey

I knew I had a purpose but what kind I didn't know

I always knew I'd one day let my true colours show

The shades of grey and darkness used to dim my brightest hue

I used to shine alone until the day that I met you

I used to think I wasn't there

'Cause in the dark I'm gone

All green and blue and crimson hues

Are black before the dawn

And so I met depression

And it wouldn't let me go

Until I found the light

And I discovered how to glow

All my life I've been alone

But deep down I've always known

That somewhere out there someone

Was created just for me

And with patience I believed

With my red heart on my silver sleeve

But now the light is here and I can see
